A canine take on everyday life

Francesco Marciuliano’s collection gives dogs the role of poets, turning familiar canine habits and reactions into comic verse. The poem titles point to subjects such as dropped balls, owners leaving the house, and the irresistible question of what can be smelled. Portraits of the canine “poets” accompany the poems, making the book a blend of verse and dog imagery. Its companion-volume connection to I Could Pee on This frames the collection as a dog-centered counterpart to poems voiced by cats.

Book overview

A New York Times bestseller? Oh, you know the dogs weren't going to let the cats get away with that! This canine companion to I Could Pee on This, the beloved volume of poems by cats, I Could Chew on This will have dog lovers laughing out loud. Doggie laureates not only chew on quite a lot of things, they also reveal their creativity, their hidden motives, and their eternal (and sometimes misguided) effervescence through such musings as "I Dropped a Ball," "I Lose My Mind When You Leave the House," and "Can You Smell That?" Accompanied throughout by portraits of the canine poets in all their magnificence, I Could Chew on This is a work of unbridled enthusiasm, insatiable appetite, and, yes, creative genius.
